Well ST is sort of different because it has a built in fanbase for a pairing that contradicts Spock/Uhura, but I do think that saying that Uhura 'don't need a man' or whatever can be racially tinged.

But a lot of the same fans who get really bent out of shape over Ichabbie are the ones who behave that way about Joan/Sherlock and Mako/Raleigh. There is absolutely a racial component at play in some of these situations imo.

I like Spock/Uhura, but I want Abbie/Ichabod to stay platonic. It's not the slash getting in the way of this one. I just don't see any romantic sparks between them. The have great chemistry yes, but as friends more than lovers.

I would also have loved a lot of white/white couples to stay platonic. Often, espeically in movies, the love story feels tacked on, just so the hero can have a trophy to carry home and fuck after his world-saving work is done.

Also, personally I am against Joan/Sherlock because to me (and for a lot of people I spoke) it has less to do with Joan being PoC and Sherlock white, than it would look uncomfortably like the only way we're ever gonna have a Watson/Holmes canon pairing on TV is if it's het.

I was annoyed with the Spock/Uhura because I didn't like that the writers seemed to think there had to be a romance in the film. I had the same reaction to the added on romance in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

(I also had problems with the idea of Spock while he was a teacher having a relationship with a student.)

I definitely get the teacher/student thing.

Added-in romance? Trillian/Arthur, if that's what you're referring to - or at least his interest in her - is canon. I mean, it's in the books.

[(Anonymous)]

It was her interest in him that I had a problem with.
